"The Turkey Has Landed"
dave weil said: I've never liked Donaldson, whom I find strident and an appalling wearer of toupees. I once saw him scuttling on a downtown street with a look of panic on his face. He darted in front of a taxi with a suicidal lack of caution. He was on the air later that day as usual. No word about what phantasm he was running from. |

Pudge was puzzled:

If that's the case, perhaps you can explain why their ratings have been plummeting over the past few years. Could it be that most people have wised up to the liberal agenda of the elite media and turn elsewhere to find more credible sources of news? Sure. I can explain it. Cable and the internet. In total day ratings for all ad-supported cable channels, FoxNews has an 8 share, and CNN is right behind with a 7 share (21st and 22nd). What I was surprised about was the fact that in primetime, FoxNews is actually second and CNN is 8th. And I think that Fox has the highest rated news program on cable, although I don't know how that compares with the shares that the network nightly news get. Thanks for proving my point. In addition to the Big Three, CNN's ratings have also been falling rapidly over the past few years. So you'd think that cable news competitor Fox's ratings would also be falling, right? Fox's viewership has been *increasing* steadily all through the past few years and Fox has leapfrogged CNN as king of the cable news hill! And where has that viewership been coming from the past few years? You know where - from all those fed up with the liberal propaganda churned out by the media elite. GeoSynch |

Hey, I'm not defensive about this stuff...unlike some... In addition to the Big Three, CNN's ratings have also been falling rapidly over the past few years. So you'd think that cable news competitor Fox's ratings would also be falling, right? Fox's viewership has been *increasing* steadily all through the past few years and Fox has leapfrogged CNN as king of the cable news hill! Unseemly emphasis noted. Frankly, they might be 'king of primetime" but overall, they and CNN are neck in neck. I remember when CNN was the "king of cable" during the Gulf War (mainly because they were the main game in town). I think it's commendable that they aren't pandering to the current world situation simply to win a ratings war like Fox is. And where has that viewership been coming from the past few years? You know where - from all those fed up with the liberal propaganda churned out by the media elite. and for those who occasionally like watching a train wreck. "Media elite". Boy, you just can't lay off the polemics, can you? And you were just talking about the liberals being this way. |
